The set meal
What it is
Teishoku is a full set: a main dish (grilled fish, fried chicken, pork ginger), rice, miso soup and pickles on one tray. It is the most balanced cheap meal in Japan.
Chains like Yayoiken and Ootoya serve it all day, and most sets sit just under ¥1,000. Rice refills are often free.
